Simple....

you have: 3x= \sqrt{12-12x}

So...first you know you're trying to find x..

But, you have a square root on one side...to remove this you'd have to square both sides--->>>

(3x)^{2} = \sqrt{12-12x}  ^{2}

Leaving you with....

9x^{2} =12-12x

Move the terms over and set it equal to zero.

-->>

9x^{2}+12x-12=0

Factor out a 3...

3( 3x^{2} +4x-4=0)

What multiplies to -12 and adds to 4?

6*-2=-12

6+-2=4

Leaving you with...

3(3x-2)(x+2)=0

Remember you're solving for 0....

3x-2=0

3x-2=0
    +2  +2

3x=2

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{2}{3}

x=
\frac{2}{3}

Then-->>

x+2=0

x+2=0
  -2   -2

x=-2

Thus, your answer.

For the matrices below. Find all (real) eigenvalues. <br><br> A= [7 9]<br> [0 9]
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The answer is "9 and 7".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]

Using formula:

|A-\lambda \cdot I|= 0\\\\

\to |\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]-\lambda \left[\begin{array}{cc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right] |=0\\\\\\ \to |\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&9\\0&9\end{array}\right]- \left[\begin{array}{cc}\lambda&0\\0&\lambda\end{array}\right] |=0\\\\\\\to|\left[\begin{array}{cc}7-\lambda &9\\0&9-\lambda\end{array}\right]|=0\\\\\\\to|(7-\lambda)(9-\lambda)|=0\\\\\to (7-\lambda)(9-\lambda)=0\\\\\to 7-\lambda=0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 9-\lambda=0\\\\

\to \lambda=7 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \lambda=9\\\\
